I think our contemporary world could use more naive hippie crap like this. Even if it is brought to you by the Coca-Cola Corporation.

But much better when it isn't.

The New Seekers originally did this song. They also recorded Georgy Girl

Heard this song on the radio the other day. Is this the origin of “the real thing”?
Base_Ancient@reddit (OP)
I believe it is.

I’d like to buy the world a Coke, and keep the change for me!

Lame, I know and this was quite moving as a kid. I still think so and it's partially that I wish I could be that kid again.

I don't think it's lame, I like it.
Base_Ancient@reddit (OP)
You and me both.

I'd like to buy the world a joint so everyone could calm their tits. I've never met an angry stoner.

If the whole world was high, what a mellow world this would be.

Catchy tune.

I still have the original 45 vinyl!
Side B is a way more funky version.

Some of Draper's best work.

Lol indeed.

I’ll need to find my ‘95 senior yearbook where they change my quote from “I’d like to buy the world some coke” to “I’d like to buy the world a coke” - I said what I meant, Karen.
